Women’s Day is a unique opportunity to celebrate all the ladies in your life. At the same time, it’s a chance to take pride in the equal opportunities now afforded to women in society, in leadership roles, and in the workplace. If you’re a business owner looking to show your appreciation for the women in your company, why not do so with a corporate gift?
But do away with the little trinkets and baubles—instead, give them something worthwhile. Our suggestion? Check out these plants you can gift on Women’s Day for something they’ll truly appreciate.
Something to Brighten Her Day
Flowers don’t always have to be romantic, but more often than not, they’re sure to delight the person who receives them. So offer your female employees a bloom or two, and watch the smiles spread on their faces.
What could be brighter than a sunflower? These blooms famously turn to face the sun at every opportunity, symbolizing faith and loyalty, but also positivity and strength. These are also qualities you look for in a model employee. Coincidence? We think not!
Something to Color Her Space
Another great thing about flowers is their vibrant, eye-catching colors. Flowers break the monotony of uninterrupted greens in a meadow or field, and this is the same effect that women have in the workplace. Their fresh ideas and keen attention to detail make them key players in their respective teams and valuable assets to your company.
Similarly, the Scarlet Star Bromeliad is a tall plant with multiple glossy green leaves flaring out around a gorgeous red-orange flower. The perfect plant to achieve a tropical aesthetic, it’s a great gift for lively women with high spirits.
Something to Keep Her Healthy
Who says plants are just for show? Just like women who are made for more than being “seen and not heard,” plants serve functions beyond just looking pretty. We all know that plants provide oxygen, but did you know that some plants also purify the air we breathe?
These natural wonders filter out pollutants from the surrounding air, which improves mental health and increases creativity. We recommend the Ficus Lyrata Bambino, a compact version of the iconic air purifier, the Fiddle Leaf Fig.
Something to Place on Her Desk
Like the different species of plants, every woman is unique. Some women might not be the type to appreciate flowers and leafy greens, and that’s okay. Even the prickliest women, however, appreciate care and thoughtfulness when it’s directed their way.
We understand that not everyone is a plant fanatic. Some people who claim not to have a green thumb may have tried to care for a plant, only for it to die from neglect or improper maintenance. Well, that won’t be a problem with our next featured plant: the cactus. Infamous for their sturdiness and dependability, cacti are very low-maintenance and can survive long periods without water. But, show them some love and dedication, and they just might bloom!
Something to Help Her Relax
We all know the office can be a place of stress and high pressure. The women in your workplace have additional burdens outside of work, so gifting them something that will help them relax will go a long way toward making them feel appreciated.
Few plants are as aromatically relaxing as lavender. With its elegant silver-green leaves and thick foliage, it has a strong scent that is scientifically proven to relax the mind and soothe the senses. It can be quite delicate, however, so consider gifting it to someone with experience in plant care.
Something for Her to Take Home
For a really special woman whom you know and love even outside of work, you can take things a step further. Give bigger, add meaning, or go all out. The best way to do so is to gift her something that will spruce up the place she loves most: her home.
Our indoor aesthetic plants are perfect for this purpose. Some of them are sprawling, some of them are rare, and some of them are lucky—but all of them are perfect for making a statement and adding life to a space. Try the Licuala Grandis, a tall plant with fanlike pleated leaves that’s perfect as an accent for living rooms, hallways, and semi-outdoor areas.
Something with a Purpose
Women tend to play double or multiple roles in life. As mothers, wives, daughters, sisters, titas, cousins, partners, friends, and—of course—coworkers, they have the ability to multitask and wear many hats.
In the same way, some of our best plants at Unbeleafable do more than sit still and look pretty. They also serve other purposes. Boil the green tea leaves for a relaxing cup before bed. Season your dishes with parsley or rosemary for earthy, aromatic flavors. You can even moisturize your skin and treat burns with the gel or juice of aloe vera. Just like women in the workplace, these plants can make magic happen in the background as well as in the spotlight.
